Back in July, Danmaq relicensed 東方夢終劇 〜 Concealed the Conclusion under CC-BY-NC 4.0 and published it on GitHub, and somehow nobody noticed. Except for Nmlgc (thcrap dev), who as of this post was the only person who retweeted danmaq's original announcement on Twitter. If you were interested in playing CtC but were previously unable to purchase it, now's your chance to check out one of Touhou's earliest notable fangames. Even if you're not interested in the game, at least consider downloading it for the OST. The sprites and SFX might be useful to some Danmakufu devs as well. Download page for CtC. Also on that page are links to the Spell Card collection and even the English Patch that was originally posted here on MotK. In addition to CtC, Danmaq also relicensed his earlier shmup, 東方時封城 〜 the Alternative Age, under CC-BY 4.0. Download page for tAA. |

Oh wow, it's been such a long time since I've heard of this. This game was the game that actually led me to this community, albeit from fanfic someone made based on this game that I wish I could remember who it was, but it's lost in one of the older iterations of MotK. |

Hey thank you for posting this. I already shared it with two of my friends, they liked it. |

I got a chance to download CtC from GitHub, and of course it crashes at bootup. For me, getting it to work required the following steps: * Run config.exe then click OK - this allows th_dnh to boot to the main menu. * Enable Japanese Locale using e.g. Locale Emulator - this allows CtC script to load without crashing th_dnh. * Install the DX8 to DX9 converter - this fixes unlimited FPS. Danmakufu also supports the VSyncPatch, but you need to unpack th_dnh.exe with UPX, or else vpatch.exe won't work. I've also attached a pre-unpacked th_dnh.exe to this post in case you don't want to set up UPX: [attach=1] |

Yep, CtC runs on DNH v0.12m and the latter three issues are standard for recent systems, unfortunately. I think it's interesting that it's licensed as CC. Also notable that the assets are licensed for non-commercial purposes only, but the scripts are not. It's cool that the game is now legally available for free, but this feels more like an archival than an actual sort of release. Additionally, if you had the game (legitimately or not) the source was always available. If anything I'm wondering why it took this long to get out, at a time where very few people will probably care anymore now that there are many high-quality STG fangames. Maybe they just forgot about it and one day figured they'd just finally do this. |
